Z Type Sidewall Belt Conveyor Large Carrying Capacity Underground Mining Applied

General

Sidewall belt conveyor is continuous transporting equipment for loose bulk materials such as coke, coal, limestone, sand and gravel. It adopts high quality conveyor belt with corrugated sidewall and horizontal baffle. Sidewall belts are used to convey material up inclines. The sidewall increases the carrying capacity of the belt and prevents product from falling off the edges of the belt. Hot vulcanization provides 5 times greater adhesion between the belt and sidewall, eliminating the need for bolting the sidewall to the base belt. Greater adhesion also prevents the sidewall from lifting and separating from the base belt, extending the belt life.

Advantages

• The maximum inclination angle can be up to 90°, it is the ideal equipment of the high inclination angle conveying and vertical lifting, which saves land occupation, equipment investment and construction cost, thus obtain a good comprehensive economic benefit.
  Structure is simple, all main components are available for general belt conveyor, which is convenient for operation and maintenance.

• Reliable operation, no chain-block, chain-floating, chain-scission phenomena of buried scraper conveyor and skid, bucket-off phenomena of bucket elevator.

• Stable operation and low noise.

• As there is no digging resistance of loading, the internal and external friction and the energy consumption is low.
  Horizontal conveying section of any length can be set at the start and end part of vertical sidewall machine, which is convenient for the connection with other equipment.
  

Application

Sidewall belt conveyor can be used in coal, chemical industry, building materials, metallurgy, electric power, light industry, food, port, shipping and other industries, in the working environment that the humidity is -15 degree to +40 degree, transport a variety of bulk materials which density is 0.5-2.5t/m3.

Working Principles

The horizontal loading section leads a deflection wheel bends the belt into the feeding of the bulk material takes place on a mostly horizontal feed path, where the side wall belt is supported by loading impact idlers. The feeding of the conveyed material can be achieved by direct feeding from a hopper, over a chute, a feeding belt or a feeding pulley. The selection of the optimum feeding station depends on the properties of the bulk material and the belt speed of the vertical conveyor. The upward and downward strands are encased from the bottom to the top. Substructures or support rollers are not necessary in this section.
The vertical section leads over a deflection curve into the horizontal discharge section. The deflection curve is made up of a number of high specification pulleys. These pulleys experience the vectored load of deflecting the belt tension from vertical to horizontal.
At the drive pulley, the bulk material is discharged and the belt is returned to the back going strand. Depending on the bulk material properties, the drive pulley is followed by a beater wheel for belt cleaning in the return side. The beater is self-driven. Material that fails from the belt goes into the main delivery chute. Lateral deflection wheels turn the belt from the horizontal back to the vertical.
